Can confirm. Works perfectly. Drivers are on github.

I would be lazy and just get a (used) Magic Trackpad and install the GitHub Multitouch drivers. (I use mine with my ThinkPad sometimes and it works pretty good)

Use this instead. Works perfectly.

But no, if you install it without Chocolatey, you don't need other software. Download it from the release page here, unzip it, right-click on AmtPtpDevice.inf, and choose the install option from the context menu. If you're using Windows 11 you might have to click 'More Options' or whatever when you right-click, as it hides basically everything.

Edit: do you use https://github.com/imbushuo/mac-precision-touchpad when you're using that trackpad with windows? It's an excellent driver. :)

I couldn't find any cause. Maybe PowerToys? Maybe mac-precision-touchpad? Not sure...

Not officially supported, but yeah, they do work on windows

You could try Brigadier.

After a bit of research I found that it was a problem with the dedicated AMD GPU and the drivers, so I installed macOS again (because I erased it thinking Ubuntu or Windows would work perfect), then opened the bootcamp app -> Action -> Download Drivers. I thought it was it, but no, this iMac wanted to continue ruining my life. When I selected where the drivers to download, click OK, but then an error popped up, "Can't download the software because of a network problem". The Mac is connected to ethernet and also to wifi. My internet connection is great, it also worked great on the Mac for browsing (when you could, because it keep freezing) and things downloaded fast. I couldn't find any answers on internet. The only guide I found for installing Windows on older Macs was to modify the macOS bootcamp app to enable a 3rd option that helps installing windows. I created an USB with the Windows 7 iso using bootcamp but without the "Download drivers" option, because apparently Apple servers are not working or something and it can't download them, and also created the partition. So when the process finished I rebooted, hold Alt, but the USB was not showing. I tried the same process with Windows 8.1 (I know is a horrible OS, but it was supposed to be the last officially supported Windows). To my surprise, it booted the usb and I installed it correctly (almost). Obviously, it needed drivers because audio was not working etc. So I launched Brigadier (also searched on the apple website but this was easier), and found out, after having the drivers downloaded, that the latest Bootcamp drivers for windows on this mac where for Windows 7 (BootCamp-041-84868). Tried installing them anyway but all windows crashed.

If you don't care about Mac OS and you just want to use Windows on your Mac, you can download the Windows support software using the app Brigadier (download brigadier.exe).

https://github.com/timsutton/brigadier - This will find the correct boot camp drivers for that model and download them. Can have it install the drivers as well.

There is also this project: https://github.com/timsutton/brigadier

You can get the driver's from the Bootcamp Assistant (https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT204923, scroll down to the "download the windows support software") or, you can use Brigadier (https://github.com/timsutton/brigadier)
